Jon Batiste
Be immersed in music from the legendary singer, songwriter and composer, whose piano-playing melds the blues with classical and beyond, on his Maestro Tour.
‘This is an opportunity for people to hear me explore my art as if they were in my living room with me – in real time,’ says the modern-day maestro.
In each performance, he seamlessly melds styles at the piano, reinventing his own catalogue alongside classical music, Black American musical traditions, contemporary pop, stream-of-consciousness experimental improvisations and more.
‘I love the storytelling aspect of these shows as well. It’s not often that I do such intimate and stripped-down performances like this where you can hear and feel every wave of energy as it shifts. I’m excited to share this journey with fans in such an intimate setting, where every performance will be a one-of-a-kind experience – spontaneous, immersive and deeply personal.’
Jon Batiste is a seven-time Grammy Award-winning recording artist and Academy Award winner.
